</p><p><b>Yaw</b> is the horizontal rotation angle of the camera and part of the panotools <a href="Image_positioning_model.html" title="Image positioning model">Image positioning model</a>. 
</p><p>If shooting a panorama you rotate the camera horizontally (around a vertical axis, TrY). You will treat one image as an anchor image<a class="external" href="https://wiki.panotools.org/index.php?title=Anchor_image&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1">[*]</a> which is considered to have yaw = 0. The angle you rotated your camera relative to this image is its <b>Yaw</b> value. 
</p><p>For a typical 360° panorama the yaw difference from one image to the next can be estimated by dividing 360 by the number of images.
